Medical Research Foundation that runs Sankara Nethralaya added one more feather to its cap on 27.09.08 with the inauguration of a Department of Visual Psychophysics under its Elite School of Optometry. The establishment of the department was made possible with a generous donation from the Late Smt. Sundari Subramanian through the Uthrash Trust. The department was named after its donor. In a function held on 27.09.08 at Tattvāloka on Eldams Road, Mr. T. S. Subramanian, himself a very known retired civil servant with the Department of Telecommunications, inaugurated the department.
